How to Find a Mentor & What Real Mentorship Looks Like with Tonya Edwards


Listen Later

If you're seeking a mentor, would love someone to pour into you, or are praying for someone wise to show up and counsel you...but don't know what that looks like, this episode is going to BLESS you.

Tonya Edwards has been my personal mentor and dear friend for years. Her teaching on generational connections and the power of mentorship changed my life. Now, she's sharing her wisdom that transformed my life - publicly here with you.

Tonya breaks down practical wisdom on what to look for in a mentor, how to approach those relationships with humility and honesty, and why "relational equity" is so vital. One of my favorite moments is when Tonya tells the story of her mother's obedience to God's prompting she witnessed growing up — a beautiful reminder that even the smallest "yes" to the Holy Spirit can change lives.

You're going to walk away with hope and newfound excitement about what real mentorship is and who could be around the corner for you - as a mentor or...mentee. :)
